Tapsoba and Silas done.
Gerrard being released has probably got me back in the room on this. I simply have to build a team full of bronze shutters and him.
Stevie is a must. Mahow can pair him with that shite Lampard he got and roll back the years.
Yep, gotta do it.
I think I'll also road test the no transfer market game as well.
Just need to sort through the club, sell everything, recycle all untradeables, build Gerrard, set aside 10k for opening bronze packs for the starter squad and then set a nice and round coin limit I can't go below.
Could build a great England squad for pretty cheap. Rio in Swaps too. Still the issue of who to put a left-mid of course, but Barnes/Rashford/Sterling would be good.
I already have a mid Gerrard.Quote:

Mbabu is an odd one considering we just got a RB card on Saturday. The top row of those Liga NOS cards look great.
I don't have near enough to get all of these SBCs done.
That Bundesliga 83+ pack is horrendous value. I did it anyway though ofc:

All of that into the new prime icon pack? :eyemouth:
I'm hunting for PIM's.
Back on clearing the club for a Gerrard to Glory no transfer market save.
Hopefully pack some TOTS that I won't use while clearing it.

This guy looks good: https://www.futbin.com/21/player/297...eira-goncalves rest is a bit meh. Mbabu at CB would be mega too. Need to switch to 8-at-the-back now :cab:
I've finished up Icon Swaps apart from WL (probably won't do) and then grinding Rivals for a bunch of games. All aboard the train to Puskas-town
Rafa and Otavio look great too, but then rest of the team is a bit meh.
Someone posted this on reddit how to do a bunch of Objs at once for anyone who is taking their time
Full Portuguese squad with at least 5 Liga NOS players in the starting 11.
One Mexican on your bench (For TOTS Corona Objective)
One German Bundesliga player on your bench (For TOTS Amiri Objective)
At least one 5 star WF attacker on your squad (For TOTS Corona Objective)
If you can make the entire starting 11 as Portuguese silvers, then you can also cover the ICON SWAPS - SILVER objective.
Also, the SILVER BEASTS objective usually drops on Wednesdays. So if you can afford to wait till Wednesday and play all the 10 games on that day, you will have completed 6 objectives.
TOTS Moments Amiri
TOTS Corona
Mega Match-Up
Swaps- Portugal
Swaps - Silver
Silver Beasts

Completely gutted the club last nigh, leaving 270 special cards, managers and some stadium stuff. Everything else went, raising over 900k and doing Tapsoba and Gerrard in the process. Also packed TOTS Davies from the Bundes pick.
4,000 coins were set aside for bronze packs and having opened them a team of awful joins Steven Gerrard (our captain, inspiration and heart beat) in the first team squad.
Rousillon will be a step too far but I should be able to do Amiri over the next few days and maybe Corona if I can pack the required players. It's squad battles, so anyone will do if they fit the criteria, even bronzes. Quite enjoying this so far and ultimately I'd like to take whatever team I can cobble together over the next few days/couple of weeks into Weekend league.
I managed to tick off the rest of the battles games for those 2 while popping in and out of the stream. I didn't realise that Corona had a 5* WF. With a deadeye on he becomes a very tasty forward across the line.
Now comes a decision time. I've got what will be 600k by the time rewards come, without any meaningful pull. If I get a red Neuer that's up to 650. I'd like to get Lazaro and Waman done at least with a look towards the next few releases. I have a sneaky feeling we may well get a flashback Quaresma and an End of an Era card for Piszczek.
Problem is I have no real fodder in the club after it went into Tapsoba. Now I could well use the 600k to plough that into the SBCs instead but surely there's a better way?
Sense says putting stuff into the 81+ picks is probably the way, but rare gold cards are now 1.3k a pop. Non-rares 650-700 coins too. That's not really a lot to go at. Am I missing something that I should be doing?
Showdown Gray vs Zagadou. Both 90 and reasonably priced.
91 U23 Bellingham.
Both guaranteed packs are out too.
Got Grimaldo from my Liga Nos with Neuer from Bundesliga.
The one German from Bayern I really didn't want.
That Bellingham lets me link in Rooney to the Bundesliga in a rather spiffing way :sherlock:
I also did the Bundesliga 85+ PP.
A dupe TOTS Angelino.
Pre-season friendlies are drawing to a close and FC Shitter is about to make its competitive (OK, Squad Battles) debut.
https://www.twitch.tv/chemicallocust
Kimmich and Neuer from the pick and guaranteed.
I now need to figure out who plays in my midfield 3 from Kimmich, Amiri, Guendouzi and Bellingham (I havent done him but I will). Guendouzi seems like the obvious to miss out but he is the only one with high defensive WR.
You don't need defensive workrates with the stats on that Kimmich.
Fair. Him as the defensive/stay back, Bellingham box to box and try Amiri in CAM.
That Kimmich card really is incredible when you look at it. The only 2 things he can’t do is take free kicks or penalties. As a German this should bring him shame.
Made decent progress against the Amiri objectives last night and have finally packed a Liga NOS player (bronze, natch) for Corona. 4 to go!
I was looking at Rousillion and while the mode you do it in requires 11 Bundesliga players, it doesn't mention player requirements for the actual objectives. So, can I start with 11 Bundesliga players (I can get these from doing one of the upgrade packs) and then bring on players from anywhere off the bench to complete it?
If so, I could have 3 cracking players (and Stevie G) in the first 11 come Friday evening.
You can indeed. Though most have that idea. Prepare for lots of loan icons etc.
Toiled away at rivals this morning in what was a win one, lose one kind of day. Only managed 5 goals and a win once unfortunately. Though in my last game I was 3-2 up and in on goal as my opponent hacked me down in the 89th minute. He quit before I could take the penalty. I now sit just 210 points above the threshold in Rank 1, those 90 rivals points could well make the difference.
After that I rolled some crap into my Bundesliga TOTS guarantee. I got the right nation and club, just didn't want yet another keeper. As it happens this one is actually useful as I was using his base gold. I do expect to see him Red tomorrow though, so this could be a let down. It's just not exciting to see a keeper is it?
I've done Bellingham (RIP Corona, thanks for your sacrifice). Now considering bringing in WI Sancho or Atal for the RW spot
I had a lot of fun with WIF Sancho. He's one of those players who are really hard to tackle.
Back into this so much I now have a to do list. :cab:
Finish Amiri
Rinse the shit out of all the bronze packs I've opened into silver upgrades, hopefully packing some Liga NOS players and a 5* WF player
Finish Corona
Go into Rivals to get some weekly objectives done, get rewards for tomorrow and chip away at the icon swap token
Do the silvers Icon Swaps token
Open the 81+ Pack
Be disappointed
Open a Bundesliga Premium Upgrade Pack
Do Roussillon
Got two days to do all that but it has coincided with a couple of days off work so should be achievable.
Back on, hoping to make some great strides with the club tonight.

One more Liga Nos player needed to double up on finishing Amiri and Corona.
Did the Bundesliga 83+ and it was a fat RIP. A fourth Angelino, two 84s and 2 83s.
Also did the second Bundesliga TOTS (why is there a second?) and got a second Neuer.
Silver Stars looks a bit shit.
Top comment on FUTBIN cracked me up "Put an anchor on him and throw him in the middle of the sea"

I bet the guy died inside.

I'll do Roussilloun tomorrow I think.

Baku will his make a way into an SBC. He was todays Bundesliga pack pull.
Yeah I threw mine into an SBC ages ago.
I still have to finish off Jude too, just have the cheapest segment left.
Decent rewards this morning in the form of Keylor Navas and a few useful consumables.
A dupe Halstenberg means I'm in for the Liga Nos SBC too.
I got Rafa, which despite not being sure how to fit him in, I'll take.
Three days in of no buying from the transfer market and this is the side.
https://i.postimg.cc/nhPdmqgr/Team.jpg
3-5-2 in game. Pedro Porro and Aritz are joined from the bench by Manolas to form the back 3. Gerrard and Boetius holding, Rashford and Rafa off the bench on the wings. Amiri at CAM with Balde joining Corona up top.
Amiri my favourite player so far.
BPM has seen the coin balance up to 46k, so need to work out what to do with those.
Probably the biggest rewards day in terms of my team and it kind of fell flat. Red picks are a pain in my ass and the run of nothing really good from them continues.
I got 1 Bundesliga offering in each and that was it. One was Hummels and the other Neuer. Both useless to me for different reasons. Luckily it was a little bit saved as the 2 best Liga NOS players were there. Gonclaves and Otavio were my red picks.
I got decent amount of walkouts from the packs, but only 1 TOTS and that was Baku. That German flag is a killer. Managed to complete Bellingham only having to buy a Trippier for chemistry purposes.
Burned the rest through 81+ picks and got back another TOTS Baku and TOTS Coates.
I now have 650k on hand and I'm not sure what to do now. I could buy 2 or 3 of the Bundesliga TOTS. Muller with an Engine looks like a must. Though I do also want Davies and if possible to bring Reus back into my team. At this point I'm willing to drop Messi and Coutinho to the bench to do it. Just for the sake of trying new cards. I'd even love a team that could work in Gonclaves and Otavio as they look crazy.
My reds were Andre Silva (Angelino was an option) and Grimaldo so pretty crap.
Can't open my packs yet as I still have the dupe Neuer to deal with.
Just checked my club. In terms of rare golds I have a 77, two 83s and two 84s along with just seven gold commons.
It's pretty fucking bad.
Back on to complete the weeklies and make a start on Rousillon.
https://www.twitch.tv/chemicallocust
If that's too painful I might break games up with a bit of grinding on Fallout 76. Believe the double XP weekend has started.
Animated Tifos
:rave:
Haaland is fodder.
He doesn't feel as fast as his ratings, he turns very slowly, his finishing isn't as good as the ratings suggest (Prime Puskas has much better finishing) and he lumbers around the pitch. The 3* WF with no outside the foot shot trait is a killer too.
If you have any of those pointless FSG swaps apparently they expire tomorrow
